1. RE: operators
Hello
As a newbie I would like to know what "&=" stands for, as in
recently-published algorithms. I cannot find it in Euphoria package docs.

It isn't new. It is just shorthand notation for the "&" operator
(concate).
x = x & y
is the same as
x &= y
The form can also be used with the + - / * operators:
x = x + 1
is the same as
x += 1
etc...
